Default Used Sailplanes for sale & On Display at the 2016 SSA Convention

The following used sailplanes will be on display for sale at the 2016 SSA convention in Greenville, SC Feb. 18,19,20

(2) Discus
(1) Cirrus
(1) LAK 17a
(1) 29e
(1) Libelle
(1) DG 600

And we have a maybe on a 27 & a 24.

If anyone has a used sailplane they want to display at the convention contact Linda Murray at Eastern Sailplane she is signing those up. We still have some open spots.

So if you are in the market for a new ship come to Greenville and give these a look. Looks like a pretty good selection to choose from in performance and price.

Still trying to work, FLARM, ADSB, Crash, or Sean into one of these convention posts, in order to get few more topic views. How about you guys start arguing about which one of these would be the best for a first glider. Really thought Dave Nadler's presentation or the FAA being at the convention to catch spears would light something off here, but sadly that didn't happen..

How convenient. And I see a bank and Costello will be there so you can buy a glider, get a loan, and get it insured before leaving. There'll obviously be plenty of CFI-Gs there to check you out; all we need is a tow plane.

Do any come with FLARM installed?
Do any include "foil hats" for FLARM?
Are any really nasty if spun by "Mere mortals"?

Did Dave or SF fly any of these specific aircraft?
If they did, would they autograph it when purchased????

Inquiring minds want to know!

AND if you need one of these fine gliders towed westbound after the convention, let's talk! I'll be on site in Greenville all week. I currently have an empty towball going to and from the convention, from Wichita KS

I don't know if any of them have Flarm Already Installed, If that is a requirement for purchase, well the guys selling Flarm are there, We have several local hardware stores full of "airplane tools" and duct tape, I'm pretty sure we can make this happen as long as the beer supply does not run out

Do any include "foil hats" for FLARM?
We were looking for a foil hat expert to give a talk on the proper fabrication and usage of foil hats, Some real wackos from the UFO community applied and we were all a little scared of them, their idea of foil hats and probes wasn't what we were looking for.

Are any really nasty if spun by "Mere mortals"?
On the advice of council, I refuse to answer this question, thanks for the 45 minute lecture on unintended assumption of liability

Did Dave or SF fly any of these specific aircraft?
If they did, would they autograph it when purchased????

We flew all of them, and they were awesome, We have already set up a booth for autographs available on a first come first served basis at $15.00 each

you shouldn't ask a question that you don't want an answer for, and no, none of these gliders will make you look fat.

Too bad that Zugvogel 3 in California that is advertised in the "Bungee
Cord"
wasn't in Wichita...I'd think about buying it and having it brought to
WI...

We offer one stop shopping
You can buy your new glider
Finance it
Insure it
Buy your FLARM & Transponder, decide on stealth, shop for foil hats.
Get your chute packed
Have an annual inspection completed with our club A&P located at the airport (GMU) adjacent to the convention center.
There will be CFIG's all over the place to give you your cockpit checkout.
And since we are giving rides from 1-5 weather permitting at (GMU) you can even get a tow.

If you want to get all this done, probably should plan on showing up Thursday morning early.
